"During Factom's testnet presentation that occurred on 1/18/18 (today), the Factom team released an Update. Not only did Factom announce that they are eager to announce the names of some of their institutional clients in Q1/2018 (and I repeat - actual clients - not partnerships), but they also announced that along with IOTA, Factom was selected for the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's blockchain business camp Tokyo accelerator program which matches potential enterprise/financial clients with blockchain-based solutions in Japan. Because of the opportunities presented from the accelerator program to match potential enterprise clients to blockchain solutions, factom has decided to open an office in Tokyo in Q1/2018. Factom also has an office in China, as well, and is establishing itself as an international presence in the market for data security.

This news, in addition to Factom's assertions that they have brought on clients in the Fortune 1000 (with MOST discussion as of late being with Fortune 100 companies), shows just how much work Factom has put into the development and marketing of their solutions to enterprise clients. Just as an example, at the Annual Mortgage Bankers Conference, in October 2017, Factom was requested to meet, present, and demo their products 25 times in just two days.....25 times.

For those not familiar enough, Factom creates a decentralized data layer on top of the Bitcoin blockchain, and that data layer can house public chains or private chains. We live in the Information Age, and Factom aims to secure the world's data - making that data immutable and easily auditable. Factom does not store the actual documents; it is not a storage solution for data. Factom hashes the data so it is easily traceable, unchangeable, and trackable over time. Factom SECURES data - it does not store data. And this data security is wildly attractive to enterprise clients (institutional, governmental, financial). By Factomizing (securing) your data, you can prove that documents or even physical parts (such as in security cameras) have or have not been tampered with.

If I am a bank with millions of mortgages, and my mortgages are Factomized through Factom's champion product, Harmony, then I can easily run an internal audit to identify deficiencies or incomplete information, and in doing so, with comprehensive knowledge of the state of my mortgages, I can implement best practice solutions. Not only would I have an effective means of trusting the integrity of my data (through Factom), but I would also have the tools to comply with legal regulations such as Dodd Frank. So not only is my data secured, but I become more protected by lowering my risk.

Factom has a brilliant economic solution to enterprise adoption, meaning that major companies (usually with lots of red tape) appreciate how easy it is to use Factom. Instead of having to buy a cryptocurrency (which, surely, legal teams and corporate risk departments would frown upon), Factom developed what's known as a 2-token system, where companies buy Entry Credits (EC's), to use the Factom protocol -- this allows major corporations to use the protocol without having to deal with the red-tape mess of actually buying a cryptocurrency. The cost for anyone to buy EC's? -- $0.001 AKA 1/10th of a cent.

Sounds cheap? It is. These institutional clients can use the Factom protocol for FAR cheaper than the existing, expensive and less secure methods that they have in place today. And the great thing about Factom is that the more the protocol is used, the HIGHER the price of the Factoid (FCT). Meaning that the more companies signing on the dotted line with Factom, the higher the price of the token.

Per the AMA, Factom recommends that, "these enterprise clients (such as banks) will use tens of thousands of EC's PER MORTGAGE. Large institutional mortgage lenders usually have between 300K and 500K loans PER YEAR with 100 documents per loan and roughly 1,000 points of data. Also, the loans can last 30 years, with most lasting 7 - 10 years, and the lender will need to continually update the chain of data with payments, taxes, escrows, for years." What this quote is saying is that the Factom protocol, even through one major client, can seriously drive up the floor price of FCT. Considering that Factom has 20 - 30 signed NDA's at this time (per the AMA), and that their recent marketing efforts have been with Fortune 100 companies, it's reasonable to suggest that Factom's price can expect a meteoric rise when these clients are brought off the testnets in the coming month and onto the mainnet."

The strong performance into the close by NUU on Friday should be a positive for FFWD this morning. When a company the size of NUU rises 20% you are talking a serious increase in value. It also reminds us what to expect when some of our other investments go to IPO stage. This is only the beginning as it continues to fulfill Jim Mellon’s vision for the company giving us access to investments that PI’s can’t normally access.
The potential here is very exciting.

[hazl] 20/1/2018 12:51

UP OVER 20% NUU I see.

That's a fair bit and more people seem aware of Factom I think than they did.
